Data on fresh water mussel from Chamberlain (1931); on Pacific razor clam from Weymouth (1931). The constant k is positive and less than one; that is, the yearly growth increments decrease. These relationships are consistent with there being a growth capacity, which is approached from the inflection point at a constant percentage rate. This is in accord with interpretations made by a number of students of growth, among.
